The hostel is located near Qianmen Station (前门站) which makes traveling to other locations much easier. Tian'anmen Square and the Forbidden City were walking distance and there is much to see on the street of the hotel. The staff was friendly and very helpful! I would definitely stay again if I return to Beijing!

This is one of my absolute favourite hostels in the world, nice and clean with moderate pricing and excellent location (walking distance to centre of Beijing).I was wondering how come I did not know it before and I'll be back!

The staff are helpful and the wide-range of food is all excellent. Leo is a very youthful hostel with a location close to Tiananmen Square and has a super helpful staff, especially Angus! They help with directions and are always friendly.The Peking Duck they recommended near the lovely hostel was really good！

I had a very nice stay at the LEO hostel. This place is great, staff are kind and helpful, location is very convenient and the building is beautiful. If I were to stay at the place for the next time, I would definitely do. :)

The room is very warm.Thanks for the heating.I just stay here for two nights,but the staff help me a lot.The bar downstairs is a good place to meet people.And the Ancient Great wall tour is amazing!Just 4 of us on the wall. So Cool!highly recommend!

One of the best things about this hostel is how they genuinely listen to the comments. They're under new management as of Nov 2014 and they're trying really hard to get their ratings up.
Only things:
-Fix the Internet
-Why is the upstairs shower ALWAYS cold?!
-More bathrooms!
-Bigger lockers!

Too bad that people who stayed there at the same time as me were completely disrespectful, dirty, switched the lights on at 4 in the morning in the dorms and were speaking really loud everywhere including the dorm and all the time... Could have been great!

Really nice hostel, great location, warm and tidy rooms, great atmosphere. It could be a little bit to loud at night for some people and the water is not so warm in the bathroom but it's still a great value for money. It would be great if the restaurant on the bottom floor could offer some cheap fried rice or noodles with eggs and vegetables :)

Hot water in the showers practically non existent. The staff don't really comprehend English all that well. I tried to ask one of the cleaning staff about directions to a shopping area nearby in Mandarin and she fobbed me off. Saying to me when she didn't comprehend me when she clearly did. Despite there being no smoking signs everyone does so. Not really a place where you can get a good night's sleep. If you want to party all the time, choose Leo's. If you want to rest then go elsewhere.
